Influence of bluff-body and swirl on mixing and intermittency of jets [PDF]
In this paper we present the modelled results of turbulence, scalar mixing and intermittency for three different basic fluid dynamical problems using large eddy simulation (LES). The modelled problems are a turbulent round jet, a bluff body stabilised

Combustion in swirling flows: A review
Melting and burning of suspended alkane droplets are studied experimentally under electric field. It is found that the melting rate substantially decreases if electric field strength exceeds some critical value. It is about 60 kV/m under our experimental conditions.

Experimental study of hydrodynamic performances of pre-swirl pumpjet propeller
A pre-swirl pumpjet propeller(PJP) is widely used in the new generation of quiet submarines all over the world, although the experimental study of its hydrodynamic performances is still rare. This paper carries out experimental tests of the pre-swirl PJP

Parametric Study of High-Efficiency and Low-Emission Gas Burners
The objective of this study is to investigate the influence of three significant parameters, namely, swirl flow, loading height, and semi-confined combustion flame, on thermal efficiency and CO emissions of a swirl flow gas burner.

Modelling of turbulent swirling flows [PDF]
This thesis investigates the predictability of non-reacting and reacting anistropic turbulent, swirling flows using popular turbulence models with a robust numrical procedure. The performance of these turbulence models is assessed and compared against

Stochastic Chaos in a Turbulent Swirling Flow [PDF]
We report the experimental evidence of the existence of a random attractor in a fully developed turbulent swirling flow. By defining a global observable which tracks the asymmetry in the flux of angular momentum imparted to the flow, we can first reconstruct the associated turbulent attractor and then follow its route towards chaos.

Effect of swirl on fluctuation of pressure drop in a gas–liquid slug flow
Slug flow as one of the typical two-phase flow patterns occurs widely in industry. The fluctuating phenomenon in slug flow is harmful to the pipeline system and should be suppressed.

Effects of Variable Valve Lift on In-Cylinder Air Motion
An investigation into in-cylinder swirl and tumble flow characteristics with reduced maximum valve lifts (MVL) is presented. The experimental work was conducted in the modified four-valve optical spark-ignition (SI) test engine with three different MVL ...

Study of jet precession, recirculation and vortex breakdown in turbulent swirling jets using LES. [PDF]
Large eddy simulations (LES) are used to investigate turbulent isothermal swirling flows with a strong emphasis on vortex breakdown, recirculation and instability behaviour.
